The invention relates to a method for cleaning an outer surface (1) arranged at the bottom of a tank (3), a vessel or similar, said method comprising the steps of: generating and supplying a pressurized cleaning fluid by means of a production source (2) of pressurized cleaning fluid, the fluid pressure being between 3 and 12 bar; conveying the cleaning fluid opposite the said outer surface (1) of the tank (3) by circulating the fluid in a pipe network (4) arranged below the tank (3); cleaning the outer surface (1) of the tank (3) by means of a plurality of rotating jets of cleaning fluid, the said plurality of jets being generated by at least one multi-jet rotating head (10) connected to the pipe network (4), wherein conveying of the cleaning fluid is realized by the pipe network (4) forming a closed loop (5) arranged below and near the centre (6) of the outer surface (1) of the tank (3), the said closed loop (5) being supplied with cleaning fluid by a feed pipe (7) connected to the said production source (2) of pressurized cleaning fluid.
L'invention porte sur un procédé de nettoyage d'une surface externe (1) disposée au fond d'un réservoir (3), d'une cuve ou analogue, ledit procédé comprenant les étapes suivantes : la génération et la fourniture d'un fluide de nettoyage pressurisé au moyen d'une source de production (2) de fluide de nettoyage pressurisé, la pression du fluide étant comprise entre 3 et 12 bars ; le transport du fluide de nettoyage à l'opposé de ladite surface externe (1) du réservoir (3) par circulation du fluide dans un réseau de tuyau (4) disposé au-dessous du réservoir (3) ; le nettoyage de la surface externe (1) du réservoir (3) au moyen d'une pluralité de jets rotatifs de fluide de nettoyage, ladite pluralité de jets étant générés par au moins une tête rotative à jets multiples (10) reliée au réseau de tuyau (4), le transport du fluide de nettoyage étant réalisé par le réseau de tuyau (4) formant une boucle fermée (5) disposée au-dessous et à proximité du centre (6) de la surface externe (1) du réservoir (3), ladite boucle fermée (5) étant alimentée en fluide de nettoyage par un tuyau d'alimentation (7) relié à ladite source de production (2) de fluide de nettoyage pressurisé.
